The design depicts an ice hockey player in action, wearing a style of uniform typical of the period of the 1925 Ice Hockey European Championship. The player is set against a stylised panorama of the High Tatras, the Slovak mountain region where the championship took place. The inscription ‘MAJSTROVSTVÁ EURÓPY V HOKEJI’ (European championship in hockey) runs along the edge of the upper half of the coin’s inner circle. The years ‘1925’ and ‘2025’ appear in the upper right part of the design, one above the other. At the bottom is the name of the issuing country ‘SLOVENSKO’. To the right of the figure is the mint mark of Slovakia’s Kremnica Mint (Mincovňa Kremnica), the producer of the coin. Next to it are the initials ‘KL’ of the designer, Karol Ličko. The coin’s outer ring bears the 12 stars of the European flag.
